Milestone ordering changed in 7.8 and now favours creation time instead of naming and/or due date

Not sure if this is intended, but I find it counterintuative, that on the milestone page newly created milestones take precedence over milestones, which are due tomorrow for example. This issue (in my opinion) is also present on milestone dropdown fields.

Expected behaviour:
Sort milestones by due date
Alternative - Sort milestones by name
